The Key(note) to Storytelling

By April Requard

Description

Storytelling is at the heart of learning and teaching. It has always captured our hearts, caused us to asked questions and moved us into action. What if I told you that you could use Keynote, a tool commonly thought of as a presentation tool, to create a project where students could create something original and unique and use it as a tool for creative storytelling? What if we allowed students to use Keynote to create original characters and animate them to bring storytelling to life? In this project, students will go through the process of creating characters using the shape tool in Keynote, use the Story Spine as a way to creatively structure and capture their story, and bring their stories to life with animations and a green screen in Keynote before completing final video editing in iMovie. Get ready to learn the Key(note) to Storytelling.
